1 Thes 1:1-10
vs 1 greeting
vs 2-3 thanking the Thessalonians for praying for him. I like vs 3 a lot because "their work they do was produced by the faith that they had, the labor was prompted by love and endurance by hope." They did not do these things out of duty but out of desire and love. What produces your works? Do you serve because you feel like you should? Or do you genuinely love helping others see the love of Christ through your actions?
vs 4-10 the Holy Spirit will help bring the Gospel power. You do not need to always worry about how you say it. The nerves you feel will be strengthened by the power of the Holy Spirit. Imitate the Lord. Because of your example your faith in God is being talked about in all kinds of different places. Your story is important. I love how they turned from idols to serve the true and living God.
